President Donald Trump has always bashed the press. But his attacks
are no longer just rhetorical — he’s using lawsuits to intimidate
the news media, and he’s inspired a conservative legal movement to
overturn the New York Times Co. v. Sullivan. The landmark Supreme
Court decision protects freedom of speech and freedom of the press,
and unfortunately, Trump’s attempt to destroy it are part of a
larger pattern of tearing away at our right to freedom of
expression. To break it all down, Kara speaks to three
exceptional journalists: David Enrich, a deputy investigations
editor for The New York Times and the author of four books,
including the newly released, Murder the Truth: Fear, the First
Amendment, and a Secret Campaign to Protect the Powerful; Ruth
Marcus, a former associate editor and columnist for The Washington
Post and the author of Supreme Ambition: Brett Kavanaugh and the
Conservative Takeover; and Ben Mullin, a media reporter for The New
York Times covers the major players in the news and entertainment
business. Questions? Comments? Email us at on@voxmedia.com or
